Sectioned leaf, SEM
Leaf tissue structure. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a freeze-fracture through a rose plant (Rosa sp. ) leaf. The leaf cells are the rectangular shapes in the fracture plane. They contain chlorophyll, the green pigment that plants use to harness the energy in sunlight. The leaf surface is at top. Magnification unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a sectioned leaf, providing a glimpse into the fascinating world of plant anatomy. Taken using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), this coloured micrograph captures the structure and nature of leaf tissue in exquisite detail. The rectangular shapes visible within the fracture plane represent individual leaf cells, each containing chlorophyll - the vital green pigment that enables plants to convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. As we marvel at this image, we are reminded of nature's ingenious design and its ability to harness light for sustenance. At first glance, one might mistake this image for an abstract work of art due to its vibrant colors and striking composition. However, it is actually a freeze-fracture through a rose plant leaf (Rosa sp. ), revealing the hidden wonders that lie beneath our eyes. As we explore further, we can appreciate how every aspect of this photograph has been meticulously captured by Science Photo Library. From the cut-away section to the fractured surface, their expertise allows us to delve deeper into botany and gain insight into the cellular intricacies that sustain life on Earth. Without mentioning any commercial use or specific company affiliations, let us embrace this visual masterpiece as an ode to scientific exploration and appreciation for nature's remarkable creations.
